On November 10, two small cargo ships and three coast guard ships from the Philippines trespassed into the adjacent waters of Ren'ai Jiao in China's Nansha Islands without the permission of Chinese government. The China Coast Guard tracked and monitored the ships, took regulatory measures, and made temporary special arrangements for the Philippines to deliver food and other daily necessities. China has indisputable sovereignty over the Nansha Islands, including Ren'ai Jiao and its adjacent waters. The Philippines' act infringes upon China's territorial sovereignty, violates the Declaration on the Conduct of Parties in the South China Sea, and breaks its own promise. We urge the Philippine side to stop its infringement behavior immediately. The China Coast Guard will continue to carry out law enforcement activities in the waters under China's jurisdiction in accordance with the law, and resolutely safeguard China's national sovereignty and maritime rights and interests.
